I don't feel a wealth of confidence eminating from the fan base in general. !I! Pretty well? I'm not sure what niche you're looking at, there are always disaffected groups but the industry as a whole is stunningly healthy with no end in sight, really. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2018-12-18-global-games-market-value-rose-to-usd134-9bn-in-2018 https://www.wepc.com/news/video-game-statistics/ (compare to the global film industry which is projected at $38bn in 2016 up to $50bn in 2020.)

Shiningbrow Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 @Rick Meints what's Chaosium's stance on fan-made mods for games, e.g. Elder Scrolls' Oblivion or Skyrim? I.know some IP holders can be hyper-protective (eg Tolkien Estate), and so try to shut down such projects hard - lawyers, threats of being sued, etc... I live in China and have my own consulting company here. I've had this idea of getting an IT (Gaming) intern to do up a Glorantha/RQ mod. Interns in China are often unpaid. Sometimes, they'd get paid about the equiavalent of around $500US/£300 per month... (average salary here is about double that!) They usually intern for a few months (6??). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akhôrahil Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 The game is not even listed under their projects at this point, so it's surely years away if it will even happen. Paranoia might be a good game if done right... oh wait, collaboration with Cyanide, never mind then... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill the barbarian Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I loved Paranoia! Great game!

So, I would love to see this come to computer gaming. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/03/08/cyanide-to-adapt-pen-and-paper-rpg-paranoia-to-pc/ The Paranoia game actually already came out a couple months ago on the Epic store. It got very little fanfare or attention -- I didn't know about it until yesterday -- and reviews were not great. Apparently earlier this month it was quietly pulled from the only place that was selling it, and its store page was deleted. No one has said why. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really sure what you are specifically asking me, but I believe the answer is "no". You cannot use our IP for anything computer game related that will be free, for profit, shared, distributed, or any combination thereof. We have an exclusive license with a software company. If you have a project in mind, please email mob at chaosium, who is our head of licensing. He can best determine what is or isn't possible. Quote Hope that Helps,Rick Meints - Chaosium, Inc.

Godweyn Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Hi there ! I know of the policy of saying nothing about almost anything until it is finished, but is there any news about this project? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenMcG Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 My friends and I have been playing Dark Alliance for the past month. It is a bit of a hot mess but there is a four star game struggling to show itself in there. I love going online with my friends and playing Wulfgar to help Bruenor reclaim his home. The acquisition of moves, feats etc kind of works as progression. I would play a Glorantha game in a short second. I would be happy starting slow, stuck in Pavis, or Prax, or Sartar, or Dorastor, or Griffin Mountain. Provision for fan mods would give it legs for the future, allowing folk to use resources to create scenarios. To be honest, I would take anything that allowed me to live in a Glorantha setting, even limited and for a short time. Stephen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to ask this - what's your definition of the phrase "soon enough"?? It's been another 9 months without any hint about this. I have reason to believe I won't be living much past another two and a half years - is there any chance I'm going to get to play this video game before then? (my current instincts tell me 'no'... or, if I do, I won't be impressed/excited). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
